I typically would crank and notch when I’m in the bandits WEZ, especially in F-4 since you will get no RWR warnings. So dependent on threat. So in the instance action F-14, it’s almost an immediate crank, looking out the window, notch. Supports the principle as well of not flying straight at the threat. Great video!

Yea the instant action mission designer sets you up to fail instantly 😅. And thanks! Can't wait for the F-4J à

Really all quite very good and better to see you MAX perform the Phantom on the deck. 800kts - out pacing the Hornet and letting Viper pilots know they don't own the tree tops. We are discovering through your flying the Phantom is a "Mach" fighter meaning, it performs best just below, at, or above the speed of sound. The J79s want air and fuel? Give them all the air & fuel they can take damn it! Innocently ignorant Sukhoi viewer: When is a good time to turn in the Phantom? Sukhoi: You don't. Now leave the apple on my desk and get out.

I appreciate the kind words brother! I try my best to highlight the many strengths of the phantom even against tougher opposition. 😂 leave the apple on the desk and get out

Thanks for sharing this. Do you have your ECM turned on all the time? Or do you switch it off when notching?

I keep it on in the notch. Because they'll get burn through at about 20 miles, so there's no point in turning it off when we're that close. Also, it keeps outside bandits from sorting you.

@@SukhoiGC does anyone know if ECM actually works against AI ?

@haackhaack4217 honestly the AI is so gimped I don't even know anymore. From my practice sessions, most AI don't for until about 15-20 NM.
